Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2 March 2026
Deucalion® ("we", "us", "our") operates the Deucalion® mobile application and web portal at deucalion.uk. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights under UK data protection law.
1. Data we collect
Account information — name, email address, phone number (optional), and professional certification details (e.g. SDI certification ID).
Inspection data — site details (name, address, contacts), system and asset information (serial numbers, specifications, photos), inspection records (dates, results, environmental readings, engineer signatures), and defect reports.
Photos and evidence — images you capture or upload during inspections. Stored securely and accessible only to you and your organisation.
AI processing inputs — audio recordings submitted for transcription, images submitted for text extraction (OCR), and chat messages sent to the AI assistant. We log token usage for quota management.
Device information — push notification tokens, device platform (iOS, Android, or web), and IP addresses recorded in our audit log.
Payment information — subscription tier and status. Payment processing is handled entirely by Apple (App Store) or Google (Play Store) via RevenueCat. We do not receive or store your card details.
Waitlist entries — email address and company name submitted via the landing page.

5. Data retention
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. Inspection data and audit logs are retained for compliance purposes. You can delete individual items (photos, AI conversations) at any time through the app. If you close your account, we will delete your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law or for legitimate compliance purposes.
6. Data security
